Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

6903.10.00Same rate: Free

If the brick contains more than 50% graphite or other carbon

Refractory goods with high carbon content are classified in heading 6903, not 6902.

6902.10.00Same rate: Free

If the brick contains more than 50% magnesia, lime or chromium

Bricks with these oxides fall under a different subheading of 6902.
